The phrase "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity" has no weight in Britain because the powerful people in this country are equal parts malicious *and* stupid

Whilst Keir Starmer is on the brink of resignation and job losses reach record levels, this is what the Deputy Prime Minister is focused on. (we’re not joking he literally posted this bizarre video to his own TikTok)

How many competitive games did St Mirren play this season Buddies? Given the cup runs and Europe.

Talk TV is such unapologetic boomer slop rage bait that they don't even bother putting context on their videos anymore..

@fredbarboo interesting. IT seems all the vendors did a decent trade when I went to the post-gala community event yesterday. Even the coffee stand was busy!

@RossMcCaff My experience was selling oysters at last years Gala festival. Not a combination you'd think would work but we did manage to sell several 1000 all the same.

Why is my Instagram page full of food traders at festivals wanging on about whether they might break even and oh the sight costs and the overheads.

What message did the BBC, Britain's "public service broadcaster", choose to lead with on the day heat records were smashed in the UK – another early warning of what experts are calling dangerous, super-charged climate whiplash?
Bring it on, we want more!

@LadPolitics would you ever do most votes or highest vote share or similar? Seems entirely plausible (especially if Greens fall back) that Reform win highest vote share but Labour win most seats
English
Five days later, Labour are now favourites to win the most seats at the next General Election
Labour - 13/8
Reform UK - 7/4
Conservatives - 9/2
Restore Britain - 12/1
Green Party - 16/1
Liberal Democrats - 40/1
200/1 bar
Ladbrokes Politics@LadPolitics
We're almost certainly now at a point where Labour will become the new favourites in the Most Seats market if they win in Makerfield, if not before

“If you’re 18-64”, “Under 65s will have to” — at this point wouldnt it be easier to, instead of having pensioner carve-outs for every new policy, simply have a two-tier citizenship? Have British citizen refer to over-65s, and call under-65s “British Metic” or somesuch

Important ISA rule changes coming April 2027 (as far as I understand but correct me if wrong). Read this carefully. The total £20,000 ISA allowance stays the same. But if you're aged 18-64 you can only put £12,000 into a Cash ISA. The remaining £8,000 must go elsewhere. There's also a further sting. HMRC will introduce a 20% tax charge on interest earned from uninvested cash held inside a Stocks & Shares ISA. Transfers from Stocks & Shares ISAs into Cash ISAs will also be banned for under 65s. What this means in plain English: → Cash ISA: £12,000 max from April 2027 → S&S ISA: Still £20,000. Untouched. → Uninvested cash sitting in your S&S ISA: Now taxed at 20% on interest earned → Over 65s: Nothing changes The government isn't punishing investors. They're punishing people who use investment accounts as savings accounts. This tax year is the last year you can deposit the full £20,000 into a Cash ISA. If you hold cash in your S&S ISA uninvested. Put it to work before April 2027.

@flying_rodent that's a good few years before there's any suspicion though. Some of it did feel like Brewster's millions, just the most expensive thing every time like it was a challenge

@RossMcCaff That’s a guy who knows he’s going to get caught and is just having a riot with it, seeing how far he can push it before the hammer comes down.

@fredbarboo I get it, I'm just always a bit curious when all of the same form of content starts going viral. Its mostly aimed at one of the many baked potato influencers tbf
English
@RossMcCaff Because their margins are tiny (due to the costs you mention) and they are subject to several variables outside of their control that can wipe out a day of trade.
I say this as someone with recent and first-hand experience of exactly this.

Would love to see a politician rock a pair of shorts, would very much normalise shorts in the office.
Do it in the parliamentary chamber imo
